NOW Gallery Reviews

Just a marketing centre for the peninsula. The exhibition was one piece. Not worth the journey.

Really nice area and was great at Christmas with lots of unique tents.

Great yet small gallery.some brilliant exhibitions here.

This beautifully designed building in itself is welcoming. The exhibitions there as are well thought out n arranged with am element of genius. Highly recommended for those whom are looking for someone a little different yet inspiring.

Beautiful place, great shows and thank you for hosting us! It was great!

Great art space in Greenwich Peninsula. Don't be fooled by the location on maps, it's right by the station as you come out towards the O2, big glass building to your right. If you reach Wagamama, you've walked too far!

This small gallery located in Greenwich Peninsula next to The O2 events arena is a pleasant surprise for those who like design and contemporary art. On the day of my visit, a beautiful exhibition was being set up. I recommend

It's a real shame I have to write this review, as previously I have enjoyed visiting this gallery until my experience today. I visted the Hattie Stewart exhibition - I don't have time for this' and regretfully wished I didn't bother.

I attended the gallery with my two year old toddler - despite the sign encouraging participants to laugh, enjoy, and photograph their experience I was approached by a member of staff who to asked me to keep my son quite. Not that I need to justify his behaviour, he was actually behaving perfectly - laughing and enjoying the space as to be expected.

I was obviously taken a back by such a ridiculous comment, and feeling very offended I left. In all honesty since becoming a parent I have never felt so insulted by a comment made by a third person.

I was told a meeting was taking place, this is midday on a Saturday, and told to keep him quiet (he was laughing and enjoying the exhibition).

In the end we left abrutly, actually forcing our child when he was enjoying himself, which is the point of the exhibition.

If you intend to visit with small children, I suggest visit with caution - expect an unwelcome experience.

Always something quirky! Thanks for supporting the arts!

Really great. Could do with more information on the development

This is what people who are considering moving here, want to know. There is the design area which is looking fabulous, and, hopefully, going to be followed by studios and more exhibitions of local artists.

Absolutely superb! Always shows the most interesting Art & Design shows. Always something to see & learn about. A must on your places to visit any time of the year Suitable for all ages and abilities and something for everyone 5

Interesting, but not a big place and workshop was a waste of time.

Cute but very small. Expected to be more grand based on advertising. Worth a visit only if already in the area

Nice free temporary exhibitions. Probably not worth a special trip but great if you're in the area

It is quite refreshing to have a little art gallery at such a location. I went to see the Camille Walala exhibition. It was a small one but certainly very enjoyable. It was also great to be able to go up the stairs and see the whole thing from above. It was also a nice little surprise to find out there was a separate Calatrava exhibition going on upstairs. Really enjoyed my time there.

Excellent Marketing Area for environment development

The gallery is quite small . During our visit they displayed the 'slice of time' exhibition which was beautiful. They also had an exhibition on the Greenwich Peninsula. Lovely gallery!

Is very small with some models of the O2 arena and nearby buildings

Nice exhibition but very lacking. Made a trip especially to see it to Greenwich but it was too small. Saw the whole thing in about 2 min.

Small gallery but they really put effort into the exhibitions there. The Harmonics in Space exhibition allows you to chill out, fold origami surrounded by light up origami shaped models. The floor was made of sponge like materials, so very comfy to sit on. Very nice and relaxing to go to! Very impressed!

It's small but it was free so it's fine to take a small detour

It's only small but it's free so worth a look if you are in the area

It's ok, good for the kids. Virtual reality was not working on our visit.

As a local photography company, we've photographed a few events at the Gallery. Very unique venue. Highly recommend.

Very nice little gallery with a beautiful free exhibit.

Tiny venue with interesting exhibitions. A nice discover considering it adds artistic value to the Greenwich peninsula area.

The Slices of Time was great to see. The Gallery as whole was small, not much to see, ended up saying sorry to the kids as I thought there would be more to see. There was only one level of things to see.

Took children age 5 and 8 into exhibit with geometric shapes, kids loved origami activities. Was a pleasant surprise and will look for other exhibitions next time we come to the O2.

Went to see the Slices of Time exhibition. Only 15 minutes slots so good to do with something else at O2 as well.

Nice small gallery displaying art work from different artists. On the second floor you can learn about architecture.

Interesting to take pictures, otherwise don't go there

Great little free gallery. The Another England exhibition is fabulous!

A small gallery in an attractive building with lovely curved wood around the staircase. The gallery will only be as good as the exhibitions in it however, the current one on embroidery being interesting and colourful.

We popped along to see the Slices of Time installation (part of London Design Week), and due to Covid, other areas of the Gallery were closed off. The installation was super interesting, and staff were incredibly helpful. We booked in advance but a Friday Morning seemed to be a quiet time. I will return to see other installations to see how the space (which is largely open) is used.

I was very disappointed in this exhibition (Slices of Time). What was advertised on the website seemed to promise a very immersive experience of standing in a large space surrounded by colour! It was nothing like that - just a "ball" of coloured cut out dates in the entrance way of the Now Gallery. Is this the only space available there as it didn't give the 'experience' of scale which such an installation requires in my view.

Really amazing Chromotherapy exhibit, very relaxing using mindfulness and colour/sound/senses really enaging and beautiful

A small but interesting little gallery spread over 2 floors. The cinema room is an added bonus showcasing an interactive movie about the peninsula.

I did like the Now Gallery, even thou its not what i had in mind, the gallery had some great work on.
I didnt realise that you had to book in a time slot online, however when talking to the women in charge, she said we could go in, just a matter of waiting 5mins.

I loved the Art peice 'slice in time' got some great creative arty photos.

Great place to check out for Greenwich and Canary wharf resident.

Great little find in between North Greenwich Underground and the O2, Now Gallery is a quiet and peaceful place to view the latest exhibition, Slices of Time. 2020 is definitely a difficult year...

I really liked the Slices of Time gallery, even it was in a tiny space. The receptionists were helpful, because we were late, but they let us see.

There was a small exhibit where you walked in and looked at mirrors and stuff like that. It was really cool.

We went to see Slices of Time installation. Obviously because of Covid we couldn't see anything else, but it was amazing. Staff was lovely and it was a really nice experience. Looking forward to it all bring open properly

A great place to visit if you are around. Very impressed with installations and always a friendly welcome from reception.

Really enjoyed the exhibits here. Totally free, quite small but perfectly formed. Definitely worth a visit if you're near the O2.

Great public exhibition space with a good programme of contemporary artist, entry is free.

The art and design college Ravensbourne made a brave and forward-thinking decision to move to Greenwich Peninsula in 2010, at a time when the only other major activity was the O2, albeit the transport links were and are excellent. Now with substantial new developments under construction, a focus on public space, design and the arts, the Greenwich Peninsula is developing its identity and sense of place, which NOW is contributing to with its excellent exhibitions which combine fashion, art, design and interaction.

This is not a gallery, the name is confusing. Exhibition of a single piece of art, the rest is only a presentation of the changing neighborhood with different mediums. Architecture in wood and glass.

Great exhibition of mirror art. Most modern art doesn't speak whatever its message is, and this was no exception, but my granddaughter loved it.
